Monday, September 26, 2011. I went on a shopping expedition this past weekend with my two Sister-n-laws and Mother-n-law to NorthWest Arkansas. Because of my girls weekend.it meant my boys were to fend for themselves. This is what they did! Ben and John Michael participated in "Paint the Park Pink" on Saturday morning and walked in honor of my grandmother, "Mama" Anna, and her survival of breast cancer! The boys had a great time and it made me so proud! After the walk, they cheered on the Razorbacks!

Blessed Paths: Happy Halloween!

Wednesday, November 7, 2012. Days before Halloween we starting practicing "Trick or Treat" with John Michael. He LOVED playing it. (It probably had everything to do with the M and Ms that we were practicing with! We began the afternoon with a party hosted by some of our church friends, the Halls. I didn't get pictures at the party because I was juggling both boys. I did get a picture of John Michael enjoying his party favor though. This year John Michael was the Deer Hunter and Matthew was our Bambi!
